Intro: Shervin Shares posted “NYC Day in the Life with the Google Pixel 8 Pro.” Here’s the breakdown so you can run it. The full video has more.

Key points

  • Zone-based and pace-based workouts run from your wrist on the Pixel Watch 2.
  • Set up a Zone 2 run targeting 136-140 bpm. The watch alerts you if HR dips below.
  • It logs route and speed. Shervin’s run covered 1.36 miles in about 15 minutes.
  • The watch can detect biking or walking and prompt you to record a workout without your phone.
  • Contactless payments on the watch let you grab a coffee or transit pass on the go.

Workout example

  1. Open the Workout app on your Pixel Watch 2 and pick Run - Zone 2 with 136-140 bpm target.
  2. Run along the East Side Highway.
  3. Keep HR in the target zone. The watch buzzes if you slip below.
  4. Go for about 1.4 miles at a comfortable, sustainable pace. You should be able to hold a conversation.
  5. Finish, stop recording, and check distance, average pace, and HR.

Closing note: try a Zone 2 run today and tweak the HR band or mileage to your fitness.
